    The critical temperature value obtained from van der Waals equation is
    Question



    The critical temperature value obtained from van der Waals equation is

    A.

    a/Rb

    B.

    8a/27Rb

    C.

    a/27b2

    D.

    More than one of the above

    E.

    None of the above

    Correct option is B


    The correct critical temperature Tc​ derived from the van der Waals equation is:

    Explanation: The van der Waals equation of state for real gases is:

    Critical constants are obtained by solving the following conditions at the critical point:

    Information Booster:
    1. The van der Waals equation extends the ideal gas law to include the non-zero size of gas molecules and the interactions between them (both of which depend on the specific substance). 
    2. Critical temperature (Tc) is the temperature above which a gas cannot be liquefied regardless of pressure.
    3. R is the universal gas constant (8.314 JK-1mol-1)
    4. aa and b bare experimentally determinable, substance-specific constants. The constant aa expresses the strength of the molecular interactions. The constant bb denotes an excluded molar volume.
